The Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders in Fort Worth, Texas has grown their physician staff by 60% since joining OneOncology 8 months ago, the cancer care network has announced.
Three oncology practices with a total of 10 physicians recently joined the Fort Worth center. Four more physicians are joining these practices: a gynecologic oncologist, a breast surgeon, and two radiation oncologists.
These 14 physicians represent a 60% increase in physicians on staff at The Center, and they will enhance the patient-centered approach to caring for patients for which The Center is known.
“Our partnership with OneOncology has afforded us the opportunity to grow and offer our patients additional services along the continuum of care,” said Ray Page, DO, PhD, FACOI, FASCO, President of The Center. “For us, it's not just about treating cancer, it's about healing lives. That's why adding physicians from different specialties to our practice is so important. Having the ability to attract new practices to join The Center and bring on additional physicians shows how the OneOncology partnership enhances our care delivery.”
The 3 new practices that are now part of The Center are North Texas Gynecologic Oncology, Choice Cancer Care, and Denton Cancer Center.
“Dallas is a competitive market in oncology. Practices have strong partnership opportunities and physicians have choices when it comes to where they care for patients," said Jeff Patton, MD, CEO, OneOncology. "To grow rapidly in eight months shows the strengths of The Center's partnership with OneOncology and our commitment to fuel practice growth and invest in attracting top-notch physicians that provide services across the continuum of oncology care.”
